1. Locate and label the points and identify their quadrants:
- Point (-1, -3) is in Quadrant III (both x and y negative).
- Point (4, -2) is in Quadrant IV (x positive, y negative).
- Point (-2/5, 4) has x negative and y positive, so it is in Quadrant II.
- Point (6, 0) lies on the positive x-axis, so no quadrant.
- Point (-4, 5) is in Quadrant II.
- Point (3, 0) lies on the positive x-axis.
- Point (1, 1) is in Quadrant I.
- Point (0, -6) lies on the negative y-axis.
3. For Figure 2.21(a):
(a) Estimate values:
- $f(0) \approx 1$
- $f(2) \approx 2$
- $f(4) \approx 3$
- $f(-2)$ is outside the domain shown (x from -2 to 4), but graph likely starts at x = -2, so approximate $f(-2) \approx 0$
(b) Domain: $[-2, 4]$
(c) Range: approximately $[0, 3]$
(d) x-intercept: at $x = -2$, where $f(-2) = 0$
4. For Figure 2.21(b):
(a) Estimate values:
- $f(0) \approx 0$
- $f(2) \approx 1.5$
(b) Domain: approximately $[0, 4]$
(c) Range: approximately $[0, 2]$
(d) x-intercept: at $x = 0$
5. For Figure 2.22(a):
(a) Estimate values:
- $f(0) \approx 0$
- $f(1) \approx 1$
- $f(-1)$ roughly out of domain (x starts at $-1$), at $x=-1$, $f(-1) \approx 0$
(b) Domain: approximately $[-1, 4]$
(c) Range: approximately $[0, 3]$
(d) x-intercept: at $x=0$ and $x=-1$
6. For Figure 2.22(b):
(a) Estimate values:
- $f(0)$ undefined (domain from 1 to 4)
- $f(2) \approx 2$
- $f(3) \approx 2$
- $f(4) \approx 2$
(b) Domain: $[1,4]$
(c) Range: approximately $[1,3]$
(d) x-intercept: none visible (minimum y about 1)
29. $s = f(t) = \sqrt{t^2 - 9}$
- Domain requires the radicand $t^2 - 9 \geq 0 \Rightarrow |t| \geq 3$
30. $F(r) = -1/r$
- Domain: $r \neq 0$
31. $f(x) = |7x - 2|$
- Absolute value function, domain: all real numbers.
32. $v = H(u) = |u - 3|$
- Domain: all real numbers.
33. $F(t) = 16/t^2$
- Domain: $t \neq 0$
34. $y = f(x) = 2/(x - 4)$
- Domain: $x \neq 4$
35. Piecewise function:
- $g(p) = p + 1$ if $0 \leq p < 7$
- $g(p) = 5$ if $p \geq 7$
36. Piecewise function:
- $g(x) = x$ if $0 \leq x < 1$
- $g(x) = x^2 - 2x + 2$ if $x \geq 1$
37. Piecewise function:
- $g(x) = x + 6$ if $x \geq 3$
- $g(x) = x^2$ if $x < 3$
38. Piecewise function:
- $f(x) = x + 1$ if $0 < x \leq 3$
- $f(x) = 4$ if $3 < x \leq 5$
- $f(x) = x - 1$ if $x > 5$
39. Functions from Figure 2.23:
- (a) No, itβs not a function (fails vertical line test).
- (b) Yes, it is a function.
- (c) Yes, it is a function.
- (d) Yes, it is a function.
40. One-to-one functions from Figure 2.24:
- (a) No, has a typical parabola shape, not one-to-one.
- (b) No, oscillates and not one-to-one.
- (c) No, piecewise with flat section.
- (d) Yes, strictly increasing with no horizontal overlaps.
